A simple walk through the 9-steps of How to draw Ridgy... as explained and drawn by Mr Thomson.

Make sure you have some blank paper, a pencil and eraser, and possibly some coloured pencils, crayons or textas as well.


#1. Listen to Mrs Robson read the story as we join in the family's excitement as they make their way through the long wavy grass, splash and splosh through the deep cold river and squelch and squerch through the thick oozy mud in search of a bear. But, does a surprise await them as they enter the narrow, gloomy cave on the other side of the dark forest?

In this fun lesson Ms McCarthy will show you how to turn a simple piece of paper into a tie... to wear to dinner so you can impress your family with how smart and professional you look ;)

Shh! Perhaps you could give it to Dad for Fathers' Day!

#2. Make a pair of binoculars inspired by the book 'We're Going on a Bear Hunt.' You will need: 

  • 2 toilet rolls, 
  • glue, 
  • scissors, 
  • ribbon or wool, 
  • a hole punch, 
  • textas or pencils, 
  • a small piece of cardboard 
  • and sticky tape. 

Put your binoculars aside for later when we go on our bear hunt.

  • A large sheet of paper, 
  • glue, 
  • scissors 
  • and sticky tape are required. 

Put your map aside for later when we go on our bear hunt.
